BonSafar is a travel agent in your pocket that understands Moroccan darija.

WHY DARIJA IS HARD. Darija is not one language, it's a living mix. Moroccan Arabic with Amazigh roots, French words in almost every sentence, Spanish in the north and the south, English among younger people, and strong regional accents from Tangier to Agadir. It's written in Arabic script or in Latin letters with numbers ("m3a", "7ta", "9rib"), and it has no official spelling. A real request sounds like this: "Bghit nsafer l'Istanbul m3a rajli f n-nass dyal décembre, chi simana, l-budget khamstach alf derhem, w bghina hotel ykun mzyan w b l-ftour." Darija, French and numbers in a single breath. It isn't on the official language list of most voice and AI tools. Making it work end to end, from a voice note to a bookable trip, is what shows how far Meta's models can go: Muse Voice Transcribe hears the mix as Arabic and French, and Muse Spark rebuilds the meaning.

THE PROBLEM. In 2025, Moroccans filed 619,827 Schengen visa applications and 114,320 were refused (European Commission data, May 2026). Many people who can afford to travel still pay an agency, because one wrong form costs months and money, and because no app speaks their language.

WHAT IT DOES. Fatima sends a voice note in darija, like on WhatsApp. BonSafar shows what it understood, asks at most one question, searches live flights and hotels, and builds ONE package with ONE price in dirhams. Before she pays, it checks visa, passport, baggage and travel allowance, and tells her first when a destination needs a visa she doesn't have. She pays on the partner's site (BonSafar never touches her card) and keeps a travel file and a poster of her trip.

HOW TO TEST (judges). Open this private link on a DESKTOP browser: https://bonsafar.com//jury?k=jbc03mnxiw8vgquads7kzto5

The judges' view shows the real phone app next to a live "Under the hood" panel: every step, the Meta model that ran it, its latency and its cost. Three real voice notes are ready (Istanbul, Paris with a visa issue, a vague "sea trip"). Click "Run live" for a real run, or "Watch replay" for a recorded real run, clearly labeled.

MEASURED. A full trip from voice note to travel file: about 30 seconds and about $0.10 in AI cost (9 Meta model calls, live run on Nov 4).

BUILT DURING THE HACKATHON. Everything was built solo, from scratch, between Oct 27 and Nov 4, 2026: the app, the agent, the price guardrail, the judges' view and the replay system.

WHAT COMES NEXT.
- A real conversation with the agent: Fatima keeps talking to Safar by voice ("cheaper hotel", "closer to the center", "add one
